Analysis of Day on day

Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)



Day on day
Pettols lay
Flakes of snow
Mount to our whole
Hand on hand
Lover on lover
Passions kiss
A true cover
Beam on beam
Tracks on tracks
Never again
To gravely look back
Sound on sound
Ground on ground
Our inner core
Shared once more
Blessing on blessing
Tear on tear
Believe in us
Please do not fear
